TMZ reached out to LAPD and the authorities said that they have seen the video and they are investigating the case.
Pharoah also talked to CBS about the incident which will air Monday.
“I was just trying to exercise,” Pharoah said. “It could have easily turned into another situation if I wasn’t who I am. And the point is that being black in America is just that, being black in America.”
He added: “Other people can’t level with the same fears I have. Leaving the house, we should not have to fear going to the grocery store, going to get some gas, running down the street. It’s called human civility. That’s what it is. It’s called being a human. That’s why everyone is out protesting. Corona put us in the house, and George Floyd took us out of it.”
